For customers who require enhanced cardiac imaging, the Vantage Titan
line is easily upgradeable to a 32-channel system, enabling higher
spatial and temporal resolution for better images of moving anatomy. The
line is also enhanced with a modern, sleek exterior, including new
covers and soft, patient-soothing lighting around the bore.

To improve orthopedic and body image quality, the entire series is
available with 16 channel Flex SPEEDER coils that conform more closely
to the anatomy, greatly improving signal-to-noise ratio. The coils are
available in two different sizes and can be used for orthopedic,
abdominal and general-purpose imaging of adults, and head, neck and
spine imaging of pediatrics. For pediatrics, where standard coils are
not optimal, the flexible coils can conform to nearly any body part and
provide excellent image quality.

“With the Vantage Titan series, hospitals can invest in an 8-channel MR
system today, with the option to upgrade if their clinical needs change
in the future,” said Stuart Clarkson, director, MR Business Unit,
Toshiba. “The patient-friendly features make exams more comfortable for
patients, enabling hospitals to increase throughput and reduce retakes.”
